* let the incubator cycle for at least 24 hours before adding eggs

* let the eggs sit at room temp for 4-6 hours before placing in the incubator

* put them small end down (if using a turner)

* lay on sides if turning by hand

* do not lay anything on the incubator wire (i.e. towels ) which might interupt air flow

* keep temp at 99.5-100

* keep water in to maintain humidity at 55 percent

* turn eggs at least twice (more is better) a day (if not using turner)

* Only open when absolutely needed

* Turn eggs every day thru day 13 and on day 14-15-16 no more turning
